wait4x is a command-line utility for waiting on the availability of TCP, HTTP(s), and command-based targets. It is useful in scripts and containerized environments to ensure dependencies are ready before proceeding. wait4x is designed to be a drop-in replacement for other wait tools, but with more flexibility and protocol support.
